Breathable Business Shirts

[radderfire]

Does anyone else find it hard to find breathable business shirts? I find this problem very annoying, because you buy some business shirts, only to find they aren't very breathable, which makes them very uncomfortable to wear, as you start feeling hot and sweaty very quickly. The problem is, it seems hard to identify what will be ok. Some cotton polyester mix shirts are OK, some aren't. I guess it might be down to the weave. However, it seems very hard to discern when looking at a shirt in its packet, whether it will be breathable or not.

Does anyone else share this problem? Any tips on how to find breathable shirts?

Thanks

Just buy 100% cotton ones? Should say on the packaging.

Don't you use your mouth to breathe?

You could cut air vents under the armpits.

As above, with spending out on decent 100% cotton non iron shirts. I find below the £30-40 price range business shirts can be hard going. TM Lewin are usually pretty good. Budget around £120-£150 for 5 shirts (assuming an offer) and you won't have this problem.

I guess I should try 100% cotton then. I've been avoiding them because they are a pain to iron.

Cotton and a wife to iron, it's the way forward.

Hang them up straight from the washing machine and iron while still a little damp.

Armpit napkins

"... the Dandi patch has a catch. For them to work properly, your armpits must be entirely hairless, ... my bare armpits are obscene. Obscene.
They look like a cross between a baby animal and a pile of discarded foreskins. "

Now that is a good wife.

Don't worry about it, just give your shirts to your mum.

Can't go wrong with cotton for the summer months (or the stupidly hot rads)!
